Peach and Plum Spring Breeze and a Glass of Wine

Chapter 238 Differential Treatment

After all, he is a prince who has received top-notch education since childhood.

After Zhao Hong was overwhelmed by the sudden "huge" amount of work, he was depressed for less than half an hour before he got up from the ground and packed up the debris in the patio without saying a word.

The huge amount of work may be a joke, but the trivial and annoying things are serious.

First of all, which clutter should be placed and which items should be thrown away is a question.

Secondly, how to place the debris that should be placed is another problem.

There are also some heavy and hard debris such as stone mills, stone mills, etc...

Yang Ge said that he was not allowed to ask other people for help.

Zhao Hong was holding his breath, refusing to ask anyone for help, and spent all day and night fighting against the small patio.

For three whole days, he even smashed the stone mills and stone mills that could not be moved with a hammer and an iron drill by gritting his teeth, and then transported them out of the inn piece by piece...

Then, he fell ill, lying in a small dark room with a high fever, vomiting and diarrhea, and his two arms were swollen like pig's hooves.

And Yang Ge kept his word. He said he would not ask him anything within a month, but he never asked him anything.

Whether it was Zhao Hong wielding a hammer or iron pliers, banging on the patio, making a ping-pong sound.

Or was it the ghost crying and wolf howling in the courtyard when his hand was worn out...

He didn't even ask a question.

Even though Zhao Hong fell ill later and Zhao Miao was so frightened that he was like an ant on a hot pot, Yang Ge turned a blind eye.

It's as if there is no such person as Zhao Hong in the inn!

Zhao Hong lay in a small dark room for five days as if he was angry. Zhao Miao brought food and water to his bedside. He even filled most of the urine bucket... He didn't even see the black face that he hated so much that it made his teeth itch. Push open the broken door and come in to take a look at him.

He was finally convinced that this was not a double act. That Yang Erlang really used him as a dish for the prince. He felt that if he really died in this small dark room, Yang Erlang might not come over to take a look at him...

So on the sixth day of his illness, he pushed the door of the room, walked out silently, returned to the patio, picked up the hammer iron tongs thrown six days ago, and continued to "Dang Dang Dang Dang" of knocking stones.

From this day on, he was finally able to talk to people properly and knew how to ask for help.

From this day on, he gradually discovered that Yuelai Inn actually didn't have that much ill will towards him. As long as he was willing to talk to people properly, most people wouldn't mind giving him a helping hand or giving him advice...

Only the black-faced god Yang Erlang, Zhao Hong, even if he died of starvation or exhaustion, would never bow to that guy!

Yang Ge respected his wishes and continued to use him as air...

Then, Zhao Hong discovered that the previously daunting job was actually not that difficult.

Isn't it just a tea room?

The lonely king has seen no less than a hundred different kinds of things!

Can this little job stump the lonely king?

The more Zhao Hong worked, the more confident he became, and the more confident he became, the easier it became. The huge and complicated knowledge and insights in the past once again occupied the high IQ, and became his own things like food being transformed into nutrients.

He thought of the ancient wind and flowing water, he thought of the royal gardens step by step, and he thought of the theory of storing wind and absorbing qi contained in the "Zhao Jing"...

After half a month, Zhao Hong finally cleaned up the entire patio.

Not only did he clear out all the debris piled in the patio, he also leveled the ground and laid floor tiles. He also planned the location of the fish pond, green plants, and aisles for passing vegetables, taking into account the weather, rain, and snow.

After cleaning up the patio, he begged Zhang Erniu to take him around the pavilion, going to the flower and bird market to look for green plants, and to the woodwork workshop to look for tables and chairs.

He knew very well that he didn't know the private market price, and he was worried about keeping the cost down. From the beginning, he just wandered around aimlessly, not daring to speak or take a look, and just stared at other buyers. Look, see how they select the goods and how they negotiate prices with the cargo owners...

When he thought he had learned it, he boldly went to inquire about the price. However, because he was not skilled enough, he always got cheated out of his bottom price by the owner of the goods in just a few words. Even though the price of the goods was already higher than the market price, the owner still acted like a fool. "Forget it, I'll just take it easy and make you my friend" with a reluctant look, which made him feel that he was making a lot of money. Several times, if Zhang Erniu hadn't pulled him, he would have paid the bill. !

It was also during this process that he realized belatedly... that he was really not smart in the past!

It is said that those in authority are confused, but onlookers know clearly.

Zhao Hong did not notice his changes.

But in the eyes of Zhao Miao, a bystander, Zhao Hong seemed to be a different person!

In the past, Zhao Hong's eyes were always half-open, his words were always neither serious nor serious, and his walking was always leisurely... It doesn't mean that he was listless and desperate, no matter what he said or did. , they always look calm and calm in everything!

She was so familiar with that dead look... Her father was like that too!

To be precise, as long as the masters in the palace were being served, including herself, everyone looked like this before!

But now Zhao Hong's eyes are always wide open, and his eyes look very lively; when he speaks, he opens his mouth and crackles like setting off firecrackers. Before you can recover from the first sentence, he has already reached the second sentence. It’s the fifth sentence, the sixth sentence; when walking, it is always tight, and the cloth shoes make a thumping sound...

The change was so great that even Zhao Miao was in a daze when he came back to his senses. He couldn't believe that the dark and thin young man in front of him was the cold and cold prince before!

At the same time, Zhao Miao also discovered a very magical thing... that is, every time Zhao Hong went out, his second brother was not in the store.

Although my second brother would come up with various seemingly legitimate reasons every time, it would be such a coincidence every time, wouldn't it be too much of a coincidence?

The smart Miaomiao has seen through everything, but Miaomiao doesn't say anything.

On the sixteenth day, tables, chairs, rockeries, green plants, and oil-paper umbrellas for sun and rain protection began to enter the scene... An elegant and quiet teahouse had already appeared in outline.

During those two days, Zhao Hong passed by Yang Ge dozens of times a day, and his footsteps were loud every time he came back.

Yang Ge was so annoyed that he wanted to slap this bastard against the wall, but he couldn't even unbutton it.

In late October, a group of fifteen people including Zhou Fu, Liu Tang, and Nangong Feiying, who were returning to Beijing to report their work, passed by Luting.

Yang Ge cooked the food himself, killed chickens and ducks, and prepared wine and meat for the guests.

When the lively laughter mixed with the strong aroma of wine and meat spread from the second floor to the first floor, Zhao Hong, who was holding a large bowl of plain noodles downstairs, was so sad and angry that his teeth were almost broken...

"It would have been better if you had come back ten days and a half earlier."

After three drinks, Yang Ge smiled red-faced and said, "Boss Yang just came back from my place half a month ago. If you had come back ten days and a half earlier, maybe we could have a drink together."

"That's not a pity."

Zhou Fu, who was sitting next to him, smiled and shook his head: "We are in a cage, so we can't compare to you, the second master. You can see it, Boss Yang, but we can't..."

He lightly hammered his chest and lowered his voice and said, "There are some things that we men can just remember in our own hearts, and there is no need to say them out loud."

Liu Tang, Nangong Feiying and others at the table also clenched their fists and lightly hammered their chests, indicating that they also remembered.

Yang Ge patted his mouth lightly and said with a smile: "It's my fault. I drink some horse urine but I don't know how to handle it... I'll punish myself with a bowl!"

He picked up the wine bowl and wanted to drink from it, but everyone at the table stretched out their hands to block his wine bowl.

Zhou Fu: "If you drink this bowl of wine, you will no longer regard us as your brothers!"

Liu Tang: "Second Master, you are a first-class handsome man. It is us common people who have disgraced you!"

Nangong Feiying: "Hey, it actually doesn't matter. Hall Master Yang... no, it's time to call Yang Tianwang. Yang Tianwang is currently working with our governor to promote the recruitment of Mingjiao, which is quite effective. If there is still a chance to sit down, It’s a blessing to come down and have a bowl of wine!”

Yang Ge pursed his lips, nodded with a smile and said: "If Boss Yang can hear these words, he will definitely be very happy...Stop talking, let's drink and drink!"

"To the Second Master!"

"Dry!"

Everyone raised their wine bowls, drank the wine in one gulp, and then laughed loudly while spitting out the smell of wine.

"Second Master, the land in the capital of Japan has been sorted out. The documents related to Mount Fuji will be submitted to the Ministry of Household Affairs when I come to Beijing. I think it won't be long before the land deeds are delivered to you."

Zhou Fu was still thinking about what Yang Ge had told him before returning to China, and said with a smile: "I ordered people to build you a large house with three entrances and three exits at the foot of Mount Fuji. The surrounding fields were also cultivated by Japanese indigenous people. , the land rent is 80%...Second Master, you are now a big landowner!"

"You need a bowl of this!"

“I have to drink a bowl!”

Everyone at the table cheered.

"Drink, drink, drink..."

Yang Ge picked up the newly filled wine bowl with a smile on his face: "No more nonsense, it's all in the wine, let's do it!"

"Dry!"

"Squeak~"

"ah……"

Yang Ge put down the wine bowl and said with a smile: "Have you figured out where you are going next?"

Zhou Fu: "Back to the Second Master, if nothing happens, I will go to Jizhou to lead the army."

Liu Tang: "Weili has already given me the wind. I will go to Liaodong next."

Nangong Feiying: "Huh? Why are you both going to the north too?"

Zhou Fu: "What does 'ye' mean?"

Nangong Feiying: "The Za family is also going to the north, to the Xuan Mansion!"

Liu Tang said happily: "Aren't we still together? Lao Zhou is in the middle, I am on the right, Nangong you are on the left..."

Zhou Fu also suddenly came to his senses: "Really...why have I never heard you two talk about it before?"

Liu Tang: "This kind of thing doesn't happen with the Second Master. Can you mention it?"

Nangong Feiying: "Old Zhou You may not know what family law is!"

The three brothers chatted more and more enthusiastically, but Yang Ge slowly frowned. He raised his head and looked at the others: "What about you?"

Facing his gaze, all the elite members of the inner court nodded and said, "I am also going to the north, Liaodong."

"I'm going to Jizhou."

"I'm going to Datong..."

"Huh? Lao Zhang, are you going to Datong? Then you are a bit far away from the brothers. I will also go to Liaodong."

"How far can it go? It only takes three or two days of walking strength. If I want to drink in the future, I can get there with just a 'woo'!"

"When it comes to drinking, it has to be Liaodong. The wine is strong and there is a lot of meat..."

A group of elites from the inner court chatted casually about drinking and eating meat, as if they were about to travel to the north.

And Yang Ge's brows were already tangled.

"Second Master, please don't worry about this."

Liu Tang grinned and said: "Who doesn't use it at home? After all, our brothers are familiar with it and can get things done when they go there. It's better to be more careful than adjusting other silver-like pewter spear heads northward, which are useless? "

Nangong Feiying also responded with a relaxed look: "To be honest, we people have spent our time in Japan this year and are used to it. If we really want to go back to the capital to do those trivial things before, it will be easy for things to go wrong and go to the border. It’s good, you can serve the country, but there are not so many rules... Anyway, I have made enough money, and when I can’t afford the knife anymore, I can go home and live in peace and happiness. How great!”

Everyone at the table nodded and said, "Yes, we think so too!"

"To be honest, if you ask me to go back and mess with those messy things in Wei, I'm really afraid that one day I won't be able to hold back and draw my sword and kill them all!"

"How wonderful the border is. The enemy is the enemy, and one's own people are one's own people. Kill people when you get on your horse, and drink when you get off your horse. No need to use your brain..."

Yang Ge forcibly relaxed his brows and tried his best to smile: "Okay, you don't have to talk to me about all this, I have a brain, I know what's going on!"

Everyone was still laughing, but there was also a hint of resentment in their smiles.

Yang Ge pursed his lips, slowed down and said, "The arrangements should be made. If you feel that other places are not safe, just send them to Luting. We men are short of everything, but we are not short of money. After you go there, you have to think through everything first. I am not worried about your abilities. I am afraid that you will underestimate the enemy too much... If you encounter any unresolved problems, just send me a letter. We can't be pissed on alive. Suffocate to death!”

"Okay, okay..."

Zhou Fu picked up the wine bowl and touched it with the wine bowl in front of Yang Ge: "If we are in trouble, we will be the first to trouble Second Master!"

Liu Tang also nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, apart from you, our brothers don't know any other capable people!"

Nangong Feiying looked left and right, and whispered: "Second Master, don't blame us for talking too much. From now on, our brothers will have no problem drinking and eating meat. You should stop interfering and interfering in other matters. You This position is too sensitive. Our brothers certainly know that you are extremely righteous, but others may not think so..."

He murmured in a low voice and dug into his heart.

Opposite Liu Tang's eyes almost rolled to the sky: "Why are you the only one who talks so much? So much good wine and meat can't shut up your broken mouth? What should you do and shouldn't be done? The second master must Do I need you to teach me?”

Nangong Feiying was angry, pointed at Liu Tang's nose and wanted to chop his head off with him.

Zhou Fu quickly smoothed things over: "Drink and drink, Nangong, you too, how come you are so sincere?"

Hearing this, Yang Ge, who was still feeling a little heavy at first, couldn't help but laugh out loud... The upper beam was still crooked and the lower beam was crooked. This West Factory is full of honest people!
